Three people in red shirts are sitting at an outdoor table at the Deutsches Museum, playing the AEON board game in front of a large illustrated backdrop titled “AEON Life... 4 billion years ago.” The setting is shaded and part of a science outreach event. A woman in a red Deutsches Museum shirt is playing AEON with two other people at an orange table. Many small triangular tiles are spread out in front of them. Instruction sheets and colorful game cubes are visible. A close-up view of the AEON board game, including many colored wooden cubes, triangle tiles, and the game’s box. The player boards are labeled with environments like “Volcanic Pond” and “Hot Springs.”

Excited-state configuration of nitroarenes enables oxidative cleavage of aromatics over alkenes
The ozonolytic deconstruction of aromatics remains a challenge in organic chemistry. Ozone preferentially reacts with alkenes over arenes, meaning that once the initial aromatic cleavage occurs, the d...

Genetic incorporation of these new-to-nature non-canonical amino acids (ncAAs) can reshape protein function—paving the way for new innovations in peptide/protein/enzyme engineering.

Shout-out to Sandro, @antonnatter.bsky.social, and @klausenhauser.bsky.social for their amazing work!
